Blue Badge theft

Dear residents, 

We have had a spike in reports of vehicles being broken into and Blue Badges being stolen from within. 

Please be mindful of which property you have out on display inside your vehicles when they are left unattended. 

If you are a Blue Badge holder, please remove these from your vehicles when they are not in use. 

If your badge needs to be displayed, there are Badge locks available to buy from several outlets which may prevent them being stolen. 

Call police immediately should you see anybody attempting to gain access to a vehicle or if you see anybody trying to open car door handles. 

Please feel free to share this information with your neighbours or on community messaging groups.
